When the architects behind TD Ameritrade Park decided to buck tradition and have home plate face southeast, they didn't consider how wind might affect future home runs.
"That didn't really enter the conversation," said Bruce Carpenter of HDR, the lead architect on the project.
Instead, they focused on the angles of the sun, and how the park would connect to the surrounding urban landscape.
Five years later, they don't think the orientation is responsible for the dramatic decrease in home runs, pointing to changes in college bats, more talented college pitchers and increased foul territory for the College World Series power outage.
"I really think it's more about the equipment," Carpenter said.
Baseball is cyclical, said DLR Group's Stan Meradith, another architect on the project who has designed stadiums around the country. And ballpark effects can change over time. When the New York Yankees moved to their new stadium, he pointed out, people thought it was an extreme hitters park. A few years later, the theory has fallen flat.
"In Nebraska, you could argue that maybe next year there would be an unusual number of winds out of the north or northwest," Meradith said. "You'd be arguing the other way — there's too many home runs.

Steven Pivovar writes that the 2013 College World Series lacked in both runs and drama.
"Winds are omnidirectional. It does somewhat balance out over time."
In 2008, when ballpark planners were weighing where to build TD Ameritrade Park, one of the most contentious issues was orientation — which direction should it face? There were strong positions on each side, but wind was never a major talking point, even for those who said the park should face northeast like Rosenblatt Stadium.
James Monaghan, who played in the first game at Rosenblatt in 1948, said turning the stadium southeast would be an insult to the thousands of season-ticket holders who chose their seats on the third-base (west) side. They selected those seats, among other reasons, so the sun would be at their backs and not in their faces, he said. More important, he said, the sun glares produced a safety concern for batters.
"It's a travesty," said Monaghan, who died in March. "All it does is soothe the egos of the people who want the people in the higher-priced seats to see some of the skyline."
Bill Olson, an Omaha baseball coaching icon, also worried about player safety in 2008. "I think it's completely absurd," he said. "They're not thinking about the welfare of the player, they're thinking about the spectator."
But ballpark planners had done their homework, consulting with a sports architecture firm in Kansas City. They studied more than 100 stadiums around the country. Many new ones, including Haymarket Park in Lincoln, pointed southeast and didn't present safety issues. In the end, they decided the advantages of facing downtown trumped tradition.
Record attendance numbers suggest the CWS is more popular than ever. But the tradition of high-scoring games in Omaha has now turned 180 degrees. This year, a high number of days with strong south winds certainly didn't help run production.
Would planners have brought the fences in had they known TD Ameritrade would play so big? Meradith didn't know. The ballpark orientation, though, is perfect. Imagine turning the ballpark northeast, he said.
"You're left looking at East Omaha — there's nothing to look at out there. You lose the very connection to the urban center this ballpark gives us."

A photo published in The World-Herald June 16 illustrates the planners' thought process, he said. It shows Louisville players, all on one knee, huddling before the game. In the background stands the First National Bank tower.
"You caught the huddle, the dugout, the stands and then downtown Omaha," Meradith said. "That answers the question of why the ballpark was oriented that way."

ORU Hammers Lady Demons on Senior Day, 3-0
ORU took the victory by winning the three sets 25-17, 27-25 and 25-19.
The Golden Eagles will enter the Southland Conference as the No. 6 seed and will face third-seeded Texas A&M-Corpus Christi on Friday, November 16 at 1:30 pm CT in the quarterfinal round.
It was a pair of juniors who led ORU to victory on Senior Day, starting with a 12-kill performance from Jessica Pancratz, who hit .688 and added seven blocks (two solo) to her ledger. Libero Bruna Silva was on fire defensively, tallying 23 digs.
The senior class was also on point, playing a huge role in the triumph. Joana Gruber tallied 10 kills and nine digs, while Sheina Fernandes had eight kills. Shelby Robb added three kills and Tatum Fredeen had two in their final match at the Kenneth H. Cooper Aerobics Center.
Northwestern State (20-10, 12-6 SLC) was led by Stacey DiFrancesco, who notched 11 kills. Keelie Arneson added a team-high 11 digs.
ORU out-hit the Lady Demons, .295 to .136.
The Golden Eagles grabbed control of the opening set with a 4-0 run, helped along by a Pancratz kill, to give the home team a 13-8 lead. Later, after the Demons tried to rally, the Golden Eagles scored five straight points, capped by a Gruber kill, to stretch the lead to 23-15. The senior came through again on set point to give ORU a 25-17 win.
Northwestern State's best chance to take a set came in the second, when they rallied from a 23-18 hole to tie the set at 23-all. The Lady Demons then fought off an ORU set point with a Caiti O'Connell kill, who then gave the visitors a set point of their own with another blast.
But ORU scored the final three points of the set, beginning with a Northwestern State service error. ORU then tallied blocks on the final two points, while Pancratz playing a part of both, to win the set by a score of 27-25.
Pancratz smacked two kills in a row midway through the third set, part of a 4-0 run that gave ORU an 18-14 lead. The visitors would not rally, with ORU taking the final set by a 25-19 count.
The winner of Friday's match against Texas A&M-Corpus Christi will face either Nicholls State or Sam Houston State in the semifinal round on Saturday, November 17 at 11 am CT. Saturday's championship match is scheduled for Sunday, November 18 at 2 pm CT.
Central Arkansas, the 2012 Southland Conference Volleyball Tournament hosts, will also serve as the top seed.
All seven matches of the 2012 Southland Conference Volleyball Tournament will be streamed live on the Southland Conference Digital Network, which includes Southland.org and the SLC's mobile app.
Sunday's title match will be televised live on the Southland Conference Television Network. For a complete list of affiliates, visit Southland.org/television.

Emerging markets strategist Peter Redward, who correctly predicted a sharp slide in the Indian rupee and Indonesia rupiah, has warned the selling isn't yet over for the countries struggling to narrow current account deficits.
In a research report published by the firm on September 4, 2012 entitled 'INR's vulnerability is rising, again', Redward projected a 12-month target for the rupee of 62 against the U.S. dollar. The currency hit that level last Friday.
(Read more: Is this currency about to follow the rupee's crash course?)
And, in August 13, 2012, the former Singapore-based Head of Emerging Asia research at Barclays Capital also forecast a slump in the Indonesia rupiah to 10,700 in 12 months, a level reached on Tuesday.
Both were contrarian bets.
When Redward Associates Ltd. – the independent research firm he formed in 2011 after leaving Barclays – released the forecasts last year, consensus estimates pointed to the India's currency strengthening to 53 and the rupiah to 9,200, Redward said.
"The current account deficit," Redward noted in the September report, "is likely to remain a significant headwind for India for the foreseeable future."
(Read more: Indian rupee hits record low; capital control fears grow)
India is currently struggling with high inflation, slowing growth, a ballooning current account deficit at 4.8 percent of GDP and a record low currency. At the core of the problem – foreign capital outflows precipitated by expectations cheap liquidity will come to an end with the September wind-down in the U.S. Federal Reserve's asset purchase program.
Though capital inflows were robust at the time of Redward's September report, they remained "highly sensitive to fluctuations in global commodity prices, and global risk appetite. He added: "The mere stalling of capital inflows will renew pressure on rupee."
(Read more: What's really holding back growth in India)
Despite sporadic central bank intervention, the rupee sank to a new trough on Wednesday of 64.5450 to the dollar. A move in the rupee to 70.00 "is achievable," said Redward in emailed comments to CNBC.

Clinical Features:
Prader-Willi (PWS) syndrome is characterized by severe hypotonia and feeding difficulties in early infancy, followed in later infancy or early childhood by excessive eating and gradual development of obesity (unless externally controlled). Motor milestones and language development are delayed. All individuals have some degree of mental retardation. A distinctive behavioral phenotype (temper tantrums, stubbornness, and obsessive-compulsive characteristics) is common. Hypogonadism is present in both males and females and manifests as genital hypoplasia, incomplete pubertal development, and, in most, infertility. Short stature is common; characteristic facial features, strabismus, and scoliosis may be present.
Molecular Genetics:
Prader Willi syndrome is caused by the absence of the paternally derived region (15q11-15q13) on chromosome 15. The disorder is genetically heterogeneous with ~70-75% of the patients having a large deletion on paternal chromosome 15q11-q13; about25-30% of patients having maternal uni-parental disomy (UPD) for chromosome 15; ~1% of patients carrying an Imprinting Centre (IC) mutation.
Test Methods:
Methylation sensitive PCR is performed using primers specific for the methylated (maternal) and unmethylated (paternal) alleles of the SNRPN gene. In unaffected individuals, biparental inheritance is demonstrated by the presence of both maternal and paternal products. In a child affected with Prader Willi syndrome, only the maternal allele is observed.
Detection Rate:
Methylation studies would diagnose ~99% of patients with Prader Willi syndrome (including deletions, uniparental disomy, and imprinting center mutations). If the results of methylation testing are abnormal, further testing to demonstrate the absence of the paternal allele such as: deletion testing (FISH), uniparental disomy testing, or point mutation testing in the imprinting center gene (DNA sequencing) may be considered. Methylation studies would also diagnose ~80% of patients with Angelman syndrome which is allelic (genetically related) to PWS, but clinically distinct, and results from the absence of maternally contributed region.
Test results with interpretation will be mailed and/or faxed to the referring physician or send out lab following completion of the test. Additional reports will be provided as requested.
The clinical utility of these assays is to confirm a clinical diagnosis; facilitate proper clinical management, and to alert parents to possible recurrence risk.

- Introduction
- Creating the sample Hello World! API proxy
- Invoking the hello proxy
- Viewing and editing the Node.js code
- Adding new Node.js source files in the UI
- Importing Node.js files from your filesystem
- Invoking an imported Node.js file
- Understanding the Integrated API BaaS sample
- More about running Node.js applications on Apigee Edge
- Next Steps
This topic explains the simplest way to wrap a Node.js application in an API proxy using the management UI.
Chances are, the first Node.js app you ever created was an HTTP server that responds to requests with "Hello World!" The simplest way to try out Node.js on Apigee Edge is to do something very similar. With just a few mouse clicks, you'll have a functioning, proxied Node.js HTTP server running on Edge. After that, you can use the code editor in the UI to modify the Node.js app, add additional Node.js files, add policies, and so on.
Creating the sample Hello World! API proxyThis section explains how to create an Edge API proxy that interacts with a Node.js HTTP server. The Node.js HTTP server code is already written for you and is automatically deployed to Edge when you follow these simple steps.
If you have not done so, you need to set up an account on Apigee Edge before you can try out this example.
- Log in to the Apigee Edge management UI.
- From the APIs menu, select API Proxies.
- In the API Proxies summary page, click +API Proxy.
- In the New API proxy dialog, select New Node.js.
- From the Node.js Server Type options, select Node.js Sample "Hello World". (We'll discuss the other Node.js Server Type, the "Integrated API BaaS" sample later in this topic.)
- Provide a Display Name for the proxy. You can just enter
- Provide a Project Base Path. If you specified
Helloas the display name, then the path
/hellois populated automatically.
- Add a version number
/v1to the path. API versioning is a best practice. The new Project Base Path is:
- Optionally, provide a Description.
- Click Build.
Edge builds the proxy. When the build completes, the hello proxy appears in the API Proxies summary page. Select API Proxies from the APIs menu to see the API Proxies summary page, shown below:
Invoking the hello proxyWhen you call the
hello proxy, the Node.js application executes automatically, responding with "Hello, World!". Note that unless you specified otherwise, the Node.js application is deployed to the environment called test. Here's the basic call using Curl (substitute your organization name for myorg).
$ curl http://myorg-test.apigee.net/v1/hello
Hello, World!
Viewing and editing the Node.js code
Let's look at the Node.js code that was added to the API proxy. Go to the summary page for the Hello World proxy and click Develop.
This opens the Develop view which includes a code editor. You can edit the code there directly.
For example, change the response from
Hello, World! to something else, like
Hello, Node!, then click Save. The proxy is saved and redeployed.
Finally, re-invoke the proxy to verify the change:
$ curl http://myorg-test.apigee.net/v1/hello
Hello, Node!
Adding new Node.js source files in the UI
The management UI lets you add additional Node.js source files to the proxy. You can create them directly in the UI or import them from your file system.
Only one Node.js source file is designated to be the main file. The main file is the one you would execute from the command line to run a Node.js application. The main file is specified in the proxy's target endpoint definition file using an element called <ScriptTarget>
To create a new Node.js resource file:
- In the Develop view, select New Script from the New menu.
- In the Add Script dialog, select the file type Node and name the script.
- Click Add.
The new, blank Node.js file opens in the editor. You can cut and paste your code into the file. The file also appears in the Scripts section of the Navigator.
Importing Node.js files from your filesystem
To import a Node.js file from your filesystem to the proxy:
- In the Develop view, select New Script from the New menu.
- In the Add Script dialog, click Import Script.
- Use the file tool to select your Node.js file.
- The file's name is added to the dialog, but you can change it if you wish.
- Click Add. The file appears in the Scripts section of the Navigator and opens in the editor.
- Click Save.
Invoking an imported Node.js file
You can't simply invoke a newly imported or created Node.js file. The reason is that Edge requires that one Node.js file be the main file. The main file is specified in the <ScriptTarget> element of the Target Endpoint definition. To specify which file is the main Node.js file, do the following:
- Under Target Endpoints in the Navigator, click the name of the target endpoint (usually called default).
- In the Code editor, edit the <ScriptTarget> element by changing the <ResourceURL> to reflect the name of the file you wish to be the main Node.js file. For example, if you wanted a file called
hello-world.jsto be the main file, you'd enter:
node://hello-world.jsin the ResourceURL element.
- Click Save.
At this point, you can invoke the file with whatever proxy path you used before. For example, we've been looking at the Hello World! example, where the base path
v1/hellois specified. However, you can change the base path by editing the Proxy Endpoint.
Recall that the Proxy Endpoint defines how clients call your API. When a client calls the API with the new base path, processing is routed to the Target Endpoint, where the main Node.js file is specified.
- Under Proxy Endpoints in the Navigator, click the name of the proxy endpoint (usually called default).
- In the Code editor, edit the <HttpProxyConnection> element by changing the <BasePath> to whatever name you wish. For example, if the current <BasePath> is
v1/helloand you wanted it to be
v1/my-node-file, change the <BasePath> element like this:
- Click Save.
- Invoke the proxy using the new base path, like this:
$ curl http://myorg-test.apigee.net/v1/my-node-file Hello, World!
Understanding the Integrated API BaaS sample
Now that you've seen the Hello World sample, let's briefly look at the other out-of-the-box selection: the Integrated API BaaS sample.
The basic steps for creating and invoking this sample are the same as the Hello World! sample. The API BaaS sample is a little more complex, however.
The Integrated API BaaS sample integrates two Node.js frameworks to create a simple API service. One API call simply returns a string embedded in the code, and the other retrieves data from an external service and returns that data in the response.
The frameworks used in this sample are Express and Argo. Both are web application frameworks. Express is a web application framework that is very popular among Node.js developers. Argo is another web application framework that is an open source project sponsored by Apigee.
To create this sample proxy:
- Follow the same steps for creating the Hello World! proxy, but choose the Node.js application type called Node.js Sample: "Integrated API BaaS" sample.
Here is the source code that is deployed with this proxy:
var argo = require('argo'); var express = require('express'); var app = express(); var proxy = argo() .target('https://api.usergrid.com') .build(); app.get('/hello', function(req, res) { res.send('Hello from Express'); }); app.all('*', proxy.run); app.listen(3000);
In this code, Express is used to specify the GET call, which simply sends back text when the API is called with
/hello. The Agro method executes as well. It returns data from the site
https://api.usergrid.com. The build() method prepares Argo's request event listener. The listener is currently accessible by calling the run method on the object returned from the build method.
If you call this proxy with the
/hello path, it returns "Hello from Express!":
$ curl http://myorg-test.apigee.net/v1/data-service/hello
Hello from Express!
If you call this proxy without
/hello, it runs the argo proxy, which grabs information from the
api.usergrid.com site:
$ curl http://myorg-test.apigee.net/v1/data-service
You can read more about the Argo framework at its repository in GitHub.
More about running Node.js applications on Apigee Edge
http or
https modules, creating a client, and so on. (If the main script is not configured this way, it will simply execute and exit after it is deployed.) Within Apigee Edge, each Node.js application script is started from the beginning when the proxy is deployed, and stopped when the proxy is undeployed. In between it will wait for new requests and process them.
Next Steps
You can also create and deploy standalone Node.js applications directly from your file system. The next topic, Deploying a standalone Node.js app, explains how to use the
apigeetool command to deploy a Node.js app from the command line.

Thursday, April 24, 2014
By ROBERT BARNES The Washington Post
WASHINGTON - With an overwhelming majority of state laws pointing one way and public opinion trending rapidly in the other, the Supreme Court may enter this week's historic arguments over same-sex marriage with a preference for caution over boldness.
Sandy Stier, left, and Kris Perry, one of the California couples at the center of the Supreme Court's consideration of gay marriage, will attend Tuesday's court arguments.
The Associated Press
Two cases -- Tuesday's involves California's ban on such unions, Wednesday's concerns Congress's decision to withhold federal recognition of legally married same-sex couples -- offer the justices an unusually wide range of options. A broad constitutional ruling is one possibility, but so is a finding that the cases are not ripe for decision.
But the court's first full examination of whether the right to marry must be extended to same-sex couples puts on full display the court's official responsibility as arbiter of the Constitution, as well as its unofficial role as interpreter of the nation's readiness for social change.
Proponents of same-sex marriage say conditions could not be better for the issue to reach the nation's highest court.
"Everything seems to be breaking in support of marriage equality," said Theodore Boutrous, an attorney for two California couples challenging that state's ban on gay marriage.
He points to the growing number of states that now authorize same-sex marriage, the shifting stances of political leaders and polls that show a majority of Americans favor a concept of marriage that did not exist anywhere in the world until 2000.
"I think the direction of the country is clear," Boutrous said.
Other supporters worry about asking the Supreme Court to do too much too quickly. Some in particular are nervous about recent comments by Justice Anthony Kennedy, who wrote the court's two most important rulings in favor of gay rights and who will almost certainly be crucial in the coming marriage cases.
Kennedy told a questioner he did not find it ideal that the court was recently at the center of so many important questions on social issues and civil rights.
"A democracy should not be dependent for its major decisions on what nine unelected people from a narrow legal background have to say," Kennedy said.
Indeed, the low-key court briefs filed by those opposing same-sex marriage seem to go out of their way to acknowledge the political victories of same-sex marriage proponents and the country's rapidly changing mood on the issue.
But they are cited as reasons that the court's intervention is unneeded.
"With an issue as fast-moving and divisive as same-sex marriage, the advantages of the political process are substantial," wrote Paul Clement, who is representing Republican House leaders in their defense of Congress's 1996 decision to deny federal recognition of same-sex marriages performed in the states where they are legal.
Charles Cooper, who represents proponents of Proposition 8, which added the same-sex marriage ban to California's constitution in 2008, agreed in his brief to the court that persuasion and compromise in the political arena are preferable to a judicial solution.
"Decisions reached through this process are more likely to be regarded by a free people as legitimate and be widely accepted than decisions reached in any other manner," he wrote.
Barry Friedman, a New York University law professor who argues that the court's major decisions eventually align with public sentiment, said the same-sex-marriage cases are particularly vexing for the court.
"Gay rights cases have been an area in which the Supreme Court has tended to be particularly in touch with public opinion," said Friedman, who wrote about public opinion and the court in his book "The Will of the People."
But is public opinion best represented by the fact that four-fifths of the states forbid same-sex marriage, with a majority of those going so far as to write the prohibition into their state constitutions? Or is momentum headed the other way?

In Arabidopsis, maintenance of DNA methylation is carried out by three methyltransferases: METHYLTRANSFERASE 1 (MET1), CHROMOMETHYLASE 3 (CMT3) and DOMAINS REARRANGED METHYLTRANSFERASE2 (DRM2). However, DRM2 is solely responsible for establishment of DNA methylation—or de novo methylation—. DRM2 is guided by small interfering RNAs, (siRNAs), in a process known as RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). By a combination of genetic and biochemical approaches, we have Isolated and characterized several proteins acting with in the RdDM pathway. The role of these new proteins will be discussed.

Recent additions hint to possible signees for 2011. Plus: Contador update.
by Joe Lindsey
August is a kind of debutante's ball for pro cycling. It's when U23 and elite amateur cyclists can sign stagiaire's contracts with pro teams. Stagiaire, which means "trainee," is a kind of apprenticeship and job audition for young riders.
ProTour and Pro Continental teams are allowed to sign up to three riders to stagiaire's contracts, which allows them to race with the team from August 1 through the rest of the season (they're not allowed to be part of the team's roster for ProTour events, however, so you won't see any of them in the Clasica San Sebastien or Tour of Spain, for example).
It's also commonly a precursor to stepping up to the team full-time the next season. This year, there are a few stagiaire contracts of note.
RadioShack has signed three riders to contracts: as expected, Jesse Sergent and Taylor Phinney will ride with the team this fall, starting in the Tour of Denmark on August 4. Late August and September will be heavy schedules for them, with the Tour de Poitou-Charentes, Paris-Brussels and the GP de Wallonnie, among other events.
Sergent and Phinney both ride for RadioShack's developmental team, Trek-Livestrong. So their entry is not a surprise. Clinton Avery is a bit more of a surprise. The New Zealander is an elite amateur racing in Europe but isn't really on the radar screen like some of the U23 team riders are. Alex Dowsett was not given a stagiaire's deal with RS, but he still has a year to ride as a U23 racer. (Phinney will be ably replaced by junior phenom Lawson Craddock.)
Elsewhere, Cole House, one of BMC's two U23 riders, will stagiaire for that team this fall.
But the most intriguing news might be Cervelo, which signed Alexander Wetterhall of Sweden and Daniel Teklehaymanot to stagiaire's deals. Teklehaymanot is a pretty unique story: he's just 21, but finished sixth overall at the 2009 Tour de l'Avenir. And he's from Eritrea, a country probably better known for its long-running war with Ethiopia than for cycling.
There's speculation Teklehaymanot might sign a full pro contract for Cervelo next season, although no mention has been made of that by the team. He will start his time with the team at the one-day Chateauroux Classic at the end of August.
Contador Redux
To update yesterday's post about Alberto Contador's decision to not sign a contract extension with Astana, it looks like the field of suitors is dramatically smaller than last year, when everyone seemed to be pursuing him.
Garmin-Transitions is not one of the prospective teams, I've learned. And today Patrick Lefevere not only announced he was signing sprinter Francesco Chicchi away from Liquigas, but intimated that Chicchi signed a one-year deal only, partly because, Lefevere said, "I don't know if the team will still exist after 2011."
That puts them in a slightly longer-term version of the conundrum that Caisse d'Epargne/Abarca Sports would face in courting Contador. CdE ends its sponsorship of the team at the close of 2010 and Eusebio Unzue has still not found a replacement sponsor.
Contador is likely seeking a longer-term home for him as he aims to move past the three-time Tour de France winners' club and into the five-times group. While Abarca Sports is a long-running team formation with good stability, without a sponsor, they may be stuck.
That suggests that the true front-runner in the Contador sweepstakes may be none other than Bjarne Riis. Other than Astana, I'm not aware of another team that can afford him and make the roster space needed (you never know – Katusha could make a run at him).
But things change quickly. Not two, three months ago, Riis was sounding gloomy about the prospects of replacing Saxo Bank as a title sponsor, and then we learned his top two riders were defecting to form their own team.
Now, he has Sungard and another major sponsor on board and may be on the verge of signing Contador. If Lefevere or Unzue get a major backer in the coming weeks, it could put them back in the game.

TheForgivenOne wrote:I personally agree with it on Classic map. For new players, it will give them the experience they were looking for when they join, a quick game, probably on the map they grew up with. It won't give away the whole perk of speed games away, and will still give the Entertainment team to do the whole free speed games to Freemiums on certain maps. Got a thumbs up from me.
x-raider wrote:Yes. Great Idea. Put a cap, like 50 games.
cooldeals wrote:If we make a cap will people just go to another site (e.g. pogo) or start playing RT games and still not pay after they reach their limit? Will they just make another account?
Ace Rimmer wrote:I fully support this suggestion. I think the idea of it limited to the "standard" settings is a good one - 6p esc sunny chained sequential standard, 5 min turns. I think a limit of 1 speed game at a time with no daily/monthly limits or limits on how many games you have played, because people WILL eventually get bored of those settings. They can use their casual games to try out some other things and see what other options there are, and they can be sold on the benefits of premium. Even if this means that some freemies will stay freemie (or some people who love classic games will go freemie) I don't think it's a big deal because it will expand the base and expand the benefits, and definitely lead to a greater new player experience. You have to get the people to create an account and stick around before you even have a chance of them buying premium.
chapcrap wrote:The problem that is created with capping it is that people will create multis to play more speed games. Every new account gets an allotted number? Awesome, I'll just keep making accounts and NEVER have to pay.

paraguay: challenging agribusiness, building people's food sovereignty
Indigenous peoples, local communities, and women in particular, are affected by the rampant spread of industrial-scale agribusiness. Specific impacts include the loss of forests and the biodiversity that communities rely heavily on, and the loss of related cultural diversity. Vital water sources are contaminated or may simply dry up. Rural communities are expelled from their homes, and food sovereignty is destroyed.
Civil society, in Latin America and elsewhere, is increasingly responding by resisting the spread of agribusiness, and working to re-build food sovereignty. This concerted effort involves collaboration between communities, Indigenous Peoples, and many different social movements and civil society organizations.
what happened
To facilitate collaborative resistance FoE Paraguay/Sobrevivencia provided the venue for and co-hosted a forum on food sovereignty, in Asunción, 21-23 August 2009. Many organizations worked together to make the forum possible, including FoEI and FoE Uruguay/REDES, the International Planning Committee for Food Sovereignty, Vía Campesina Paraguay and Via Campesina International, the World March of Women (WMW), Cono Sur Sustentable, Coordinadora Nacional de Mujeres Rural e Indígenas (CONAMURI), Food & Water Watch and the Heinrich Boell Foundation.
The forum followed on from and built upon the global Nyeleni 'Forum on Food Sovereignty' convened in Mali in February 2007. It provided another space for leaders of different communities, movements and organizations to come together to generate resistance strategies, exchange experiences and testimonies, strengthen affected communities and women, and further develop and implement the concept of buen vivir (literally, 'the good life') in communities.
The Asunción forum also looked specifically at the agribusiness model, the soya-meat chain, the timber/cellulose-biofuels chain, and industrial fishing. The forum also highlighted the critical question of gender, looking at the role of women, especially in protecting seeds and conserving water resources, and the impact that agribusiness has on them. Additionally it focused on building a de-globalized agriculture and reconstructing national food markets through agrarian reform, food sovereignty, rescuing native seeds, and territories free of transgenic organisms and agro-toxins.
The forum was recorded and shared through multiple media, including video, photography and radio. Radio Mundo Real broadcast the event, and recorded interviews with many different participants.
what changed
The Forum on Food Sovereignty helped to build synergies between many communities, movements and organizations, allowing the continued construction of a common agenda and strategy around people's food sovereignty. The richest moments came during the panelists' presentations, and the subsequent debates in plenary and in working groups.
The forum served to strengthen national, regional and global alliances, including those between the Paraguayan campesino groups participating in Via Campesina Paraguay, and FoE Paraguay.
what next
Participants discussed a joint strategy and key dates for collaborative efforts following the forum. Important moments listed included the International Day Of Food Sovereignty on 16 October, and Regional Forums such as the Foro Social América due to take place in Paraguay in 2010.

The school is extremely generous as far as scholarship goes, over 95% of our students get scholarship and goes to school.
I would encourage anyone attending Anderson University to go talk with a financial aid counselor. They are willing to sit down with you and help decide the best way to do financial aid and what your payments will look like either currently or in the future. I have filled out financial aid and the process was overall simple.
I did receive money from my school, but I'm going to need a lot more than what they gave me this year to be able to attend my sophomore year.
The price tag was high, but automatic scholarships cover over $10,000 a year, and applying for other scholarships will only help. Definitely fill out the FAFSA. Beyond that, apply for any and every scholarship for which you are eligible. Also look into work study for additional aid.
I got good scholarships here. I received one that they didn't tell me about which was good news but poor management. I don't get any federal aid besides loans which is kind of frustrating since I have two older brothers. One graduated from IU and is going to go into law school and the other is in the middle of his college career at Butler. I feel like FAFSA doesn't really account for the fact that it is hard to pay for multiple colleges at once even if your family is doing well. On the flip side I understand that there are many people out there that really need it a lot more than me.

FORT WORTH, Texas - Josie Myers-Thurmon, 54, a resident of Weatherford, never imagined a simple sore throat and cough could be cancer. Tonsil cancer, no less!
"There are approximately 10,000 to 12,000 tonsil cases diagnosed in the United States each year," said Peter LaNasa, M.D., medical director of the Harris Methodist Fort Worth (HMFW) CyberKnife® Center. "This is still a pretty rare type of cancer compared to other types of cancer, like breast, lung or prostate cancer."
Myers-Thurmon was diagnosed with tonsil cancer in July 2006 and went through extensive radiation and chemotherapy treatments. LaNasa advised Myers-Thurmon to receive her "final boost" using CyberKnife,® and she only required one treatment. Today, Myers-Thurmon is in remission.
Top 10 Treatment Sites in the World
Fortunately for Myers-Thurmon, she and 254 other patients in 2007 benefited from the experience and expertise of the internationally recognized Harris Methodist Fort Worth CyberKnife® team.
The HMFW CyberKnife® Center was recently ranked seventh among the top 10 extracranial treatment facilities in the world by Accuray, having treated 143 extracranial tumors - those located outside of the brain - in 2007. The center experienced the largest volume during the fourth quarter, treating 49 extracranial patients. The only hospital in Texas to be honored, HMFW was recognized along with hospitals in China, Korea, Spain and six other hospitals nationally.*
"I had a tremendous amount of confidence in my doctors and the entire CyberKnife® team at Harris," Myers-Thurmon said. "I was excited to be part of this new technology that would eliminate my need for surgery. Since my experience with CyberKnife®, I have referred my father-in-law who also had the CyberKnife® treatment."
Patient-Focused Technology
The CyberKnife® Radiosurgery System is surgery performed without incisions, blood loss, or anesthesia, and it requires little or no recovery time. The quick, 60- to 90-minute outpatient procedure allows patients to receive treatment and resume their normal daily activities. For some patients, like Myers-Thurmon, traditional surgery and a long hospital stay was not necessary to control the cancer.
"More and more patients are choosing CyberKnife®, because it is minimally invasive and allows the patients to get back to their lives quickly," LaNasa said. "We also treat brain tumors with CyberKnife, but we are excited to have been recently recognized for our work in treating extracranial tumors. We have expanded our services to treat more types of tumors, like prostate and lung, allowing more patients to have new treatment options upon diagnosis."
Patient can also benefit from CyberKnife® by having few or no complications with treatment, no hospital stay, and use the treatment in conjunction with other cancer treatments, like chemotherapy and radiation.
Considering CyberKnife®
Patients seeking more information about CyberKnife® radiosurgery should consult their physician, visit www.harrismethodisthospitals.org/hmfw/cancer, or call 1-866-296-6631.

Swimming and beach are my favorite. The only problem was that i have curly dry frizzy hair. The chlorine in the pool always dried my hair out so bad, and it also sucked the color out. I finally found what i was looking for with this Sun Shield Sun and sport leave in conditioner! Words cant describe how much i LOVE this, I spray it on before i get in the pool or ocean and come out with soft hair instead of toasty dry hair. It also locks my hair dye in! This is a jack of all trades! Its also good for daily wear for keeping your precious locks extra safe and for leave in conditioner!
